We're Spending It There So We Won't Have to Spend It Over Here

Wow.

“Currently, the Defense Department says it is spending about $4.5 billion a month on the conflict in Iraq, or about $100,000 per minute.

“Current spending in Afghanistan is about $800 million a month, or about $18,000 per minute.”

I guess now we know what “freedom isn’t free” really means.
